MOSCOW - Russia has made its first shipment of nuclear fuel to Iran's Bushehr plant, which is at the center of the international tensions over Tehran's nuclear program, the Foreign Ministry said Monday.

Iran contends the nuclear power plant operation in Bushehr is strictly for civilian purposes, but many critics suspect Tehran intends to use the plant as part of an alleged effort to develop nuclear weapons.

Construction at Bushehr had been frequently delayed. Officials said the delays were due to payment disputes, but many observers suggested Russia also was unhappy with Iran's resistance to international pressure to make its nuclear program more open and to assure the international community that it was not developing nuclear arms.

Wonder how long it'll be before some people end up eating their words ....

I say...whatever? Quite frankly I really don't see any way around a world war III. Everyone wants a piece of the pie and the pie is only so big. We don't have another pie and we can't make another pie. There are only so many rresources on and in the planet. Everyone wants to be top dog and everyone has their belief system plunging themselves into genocide. I say lets get it over with. It will be the greatest show on earth. Within an hour after it starts I won't be here to care. And I get to go see Jesus...Sounds like a win win to me. I just hope when it happens that I'm not one of those left behind in the aftermath, if there is a aftermath. I hope I get to kiss an ICBM right on the nose cone.
